ABOUT STATE SENATOR LINDA HOLMES

ILD State Senator Linda holmes headshot smaller

As a person living with MS, State Senator Linda Holmes has been a great advocate for MS issues. She has sponsored and been instrumental in passing legislation to improve the lives of people living with MS including this year's Safe Patient Handling Law (HB2285), which enhances the safety of mobility-limited patients while being lifted in hospitals and nursing homes and improves training, and HB244, which extended preventative physical therapy insurance coverage to state employees. Her leadership was also instrumental in negotiating the addition of MS symptom management medications to the Illinois Cares RX formulary, and she has been a visible advocate in helping motivate MS Activists during the Chapter's annual MS Action Days in Springfield.
